        "text": "Common materials for bathroom addition framing primarily include lumber, such as dimensional softwood like Douglas fir or spruce-pine-fir (SPF), which is typically used for studs, joists, and rafters. For areas susceptible to moisture or for specific structural requirements, pressure-treated lumber might be used. In some commercial or specific residential applications, light-gauge steel studs are also an option, offering durability and resistance to rot and insects. The choice of material depends on local building codes, structural engineering requirements, and project specifications.",
